Supporting Teen Mental Health: Insights from a High School Counselor

One of the biggest things that we can do, as counselors and school social workers and school support people, is connect people with resources, and so a lot of times parents are scared and they don't know what to do because they don't know what help is out there.
Teenagers today face an overwhelming amount of emotional stress, from addiction to the pressures of academic life. In this episode of the Addict II Athlete podcast, Savannah sits down with Danny Lundell, a high school counselor, to shed light on how parents and students can navigate these challenges. Lundell shares practical advice on accessing the often-overlooked resources available within schools, breaking down the barriers that prevent many from seeking help.
The conversation covers vital topics such as teen addiction, suicide prevention, and the critical role that school counselors play in providing support. Lundell also touches on the fears that parents have when it comes to reaching out for help and offers reassurance that there are effective ways to connect with the right resources. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to better understand and support the mental health of teenagers.
Whether you're a parent, teacher, or student, you'll find valuable information and encouragement to take that first step towards getting the help needed.
